  • Nessy’s New Job: DCUfm Deputy Station Manager

    Photo by Alan Regan

    The Media Production Society had its AGM tonght and I am now writing this as DCUfm’s Deputy Station Manager. Delighted!

    I’m hoping to get everything up and running again after the Summer by the first week in September, with current presenters getting back into their roles, hopefully, with ease. By the time then that the new first years introduced to the station and up without any awkwardness and making them feel at ease.

    September will also see the return of the successful presenting/production workshops that we did last year, introducing everyone, especially those who have little radio experience to the big bad radio world. I’m also hoping to have airchecks with everyone, including scrutinising myself at least once a month, so everyone is ready for FM licensing opportunities and the rules and regulations with go with that in comparison to online radio.

    ooh.. Bring It on!

    Had an interview today for OpenFM, its a temporary licensed Dublin based station which will be broadcasting in June for ten days.

    Here’s a bit from the OPEN FM website

    OpenFM, the station which is proud to celebrate diversity, will be Ireland’s first gay culture radio station, which aims to reduce preconceptions and stereotypes had about the LGBT community. Hoping to promote openness among everyone in Dublin and provide the straight community an insight into gay life. OpenFM will feature a guide to what’s happening during Dublin’s Pride Week. OpenFM is non-profit organisation with all additional funds going to a chosen charity

    Nice bunch a people and it would be a nice challenge. I like their outlook!

    Plus I hate the thought of not doing any live radio over the Summer..

    Edit: April 2 2010
    Just found out last night that I will be working on OpenFM – looking forward to it! Not sure exactly what role I will be in yet, will find out soon.. Woohoo!
